  1. Thank You everyone. Paula, whats this gran-kids??? Susan, they said it should be healed in about a month.. Im not getting my hopes up though. But once it is healed.. I will go for surgery right away!
  2. Susan, 2nd degree burns are pretty bad too... As long as you are doing okay. I have posted my wound on here under "Green is Good?" thread if you have the stomach to see them.
  3. Well right now I dont have an infection... but I got my port removed due to infection.. LOL say that 5 times really fast ha ha ha Anyway as soon as I am heal up then I will get band leaky band replaced. This port infection had nothing to do with my leaky band. You know once I get my band replaced, with everything I have been thourgh I will be one heck of a bandster LOL
  4. Hey everyone! I just wanted to drop in and say HI... I miss you all very much! I havent been here in a while because I just cant keep up at times. LOL anyway I think I will stop in and say hi every so offten if you dont mind. I am doing okay, my wound is not healing but I know it will soon. And my Birthday was wonderful.. Glad to share a birthday day with you Mary!! hope your day was great! Well I hope to find you all well. and I will be back in soon to gabble! You all take care love ya and miss ya (((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))
  5. Well The green is gone.. woohoo... but I dont know when or if it will ever come back. I went to see the wound specialist today and thought maybe I should go see the Dr. at the wound clinic but she called in the Dr. ..... Dr..... hehe and he said that they will take good care of me, and that right on they are more worried about infection then anything else. I did ask why it looked like the outside was closing faster then the inside... He said "Well it hasnt closed, and if it does you need to come in right away and we will re open the outside wound back up" So I think I am in good hands, The wound doesnt look great but, at lest it is not full of pus and I am not running fever all the time. I think thats the main thing the Dr. was worried about. So No matter how bad I think it looks, my Dr. will think it looks better, as long as its not infected or ozzing pus. I guess I feel good about it all, its harder when its your own body and you see all the changes in it. Well thats my update just case anyone was wondering. Thank you all for everything and all your support!!!!

    I need help.. I am making a Afgan and I need to know how many yards are in a Skein? I looked online and saw everything between 8 yards - 230 yards.... thats a big gap.
  7. Yes he was fired... and there are some really nice AOL reps out there. But there are also so many other companies that have mean people working, not just AOL. Plus some of the people that call into AOL are really really rude, and AOL employees have to take it. I dont think its a great way to live and work, but thats where this world is at. Mean people on the phone on the road in stores and resturants. They are all over!
  8. I thought Johnson and Johnson made the Inamed band.... Im not sure, I know my brother works for Ethicon (johnson and johnson co.) and He said they are making all the tools to install the lap band there and another ethicon is making the Inamed band.. Maybe it is a diffrenet brand and he didnt know.
  9. Happy Birthday Mary! I hope you had a wonderful day!

  15. I was on a liquid diet for 10 days. Congrats on getting your band in a week!
  16. One morning the husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap. Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, and reads her book. Along comes a Game Warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says, "Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?" "Reading a book," she replies, (thinking, Isn't that obvious?") "You're in a Restricted Fishing Area," he informs her. "I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing, I'm reading." "Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. "I'll have to take you in and write you up." "If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault," says the woman. "But I haven't even touched you, " says the game warden. "That's true but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment." "Have a nice day ma'am," and he left. MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think.

And Im watching my mail I cant wait, it will be like a july 4th and birthday gift hehehehe my birthday is Tuesday.... I love this gift excahnge stuff... I could do it every month LOL
  18. I was on a liquid diet for 10 days before my surgery. I was told it was a 45 min surgery, I was under for 2 hours because my liver was so big that he had a very hard time going round it. But I guess he did it, because I am banded, just took awhile.
  19. Maybe it is some type of food that got shaped into a grape like while it was trying to go down. You know I have no idea. but I hope you are okay and that it does not happen again.
